I spent 20 hours shooting the Horsehead nebula to create my most intricately detailed photo of this region. This area is surprisingly large, and if it were brighter it would appear much larger than the full moon. Make sure you zoom in! [OC]goatharper t1_j986fw5 wrote

Thanks for posting this. I do some very casual stargazing myself, and love to see what's possible for a dedicated enthusiast.
I pointed my little 60-power scope at Jupiter during closest approach recently and watched the four moons Galileo saw, as they moved about from night to night. Very exciting! That's about as serious as I get....
